-
- Entrepreneurship
In this episode we talk to Ben Higgins of Generous Coffee. You may also recognize Ben's name from his time in 2016 as the star of ABC's TV Show, The Bachelor.
Generous Coffee started after Ben's stint on the Bachelor as he was exploring how to use his platform to serve others. In 2017, he took a trip to Honduras and began to develop a fiscally self-sustaining model to help change the hurt that we all see in the world. Generous is fully dedicated to giving away 100% of their profits while ethically sourcing coffee and supporting work to end the injustices that are present in the global coffee industry.
We dig in with Ben on how an injury in high school changed his career trajectory, how he has grown to find purpose through his faith and work integration, what it was like to be a Christian on The Bachelor, how he used his platform from The Bachelor to launch his social enterprise, and what Generous is seeking to do in making the world a better place. We also chat about all the usual investment strategies, business challenges, and other areas that all social enterprises face.
